I JUST left from my tea picking and factory tour and thought to write a review immediately after while the memories are fresh. My husband and I went on the tour for my birthday, and it was informative and fun. My husband does not like green tea, but even he enjoyed many of the samples of freshly made tea and food you get during the tour. The people who run the place are very friendly, informative, and speak excellent English. 10000 yen for the tour (about 100 dollars per person) seems like a lot but is definitely worth it. You get your monies worth and I'm excited to come again some time soon to eat more delicious desserts and buy more fresh tea leaves.

Lovely little matcha cafe in an area surrounded by Japanese tea plantations. Loved the food here as well. The shop attendant here was so nice to explain to us a little about Japanese tea and how best to enjoy it. Recommend trying their matcha ice cream too for dessert ! Sure does hit the spot :)
This is a great cafe with tasty lunch options and an excellent introduction to Japanese green tea varieties. The staff speak good English and are very friendly. Coming here was a highlight of my trip and a great escape for the crowds of tourists in nearby cities.
You can try a variety of different teas here, and I especially loved the ice cream set! We got the sencha tasting set and the ice cream, which had genmai, several types of matcha, sencha, houjicha, etc, flavoured ice creams. Paradise.
We did the tea picking tour with Daiki and had such a great time. Definitely a highlight of our trip to Japan so far. Beautiful food and tea, and super friendly and hospitable staff.
